NL East Notes: McKeon, Beltran, Phillies

Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria will consider Jack McKeon to manage the club in 2012, writes Joe Capozzi of the Palm Beach Post. Loria added that former skipper Edwin Rodriguez resigned on his own and was not pressured by the front office to quit.

Loria also says that his team can work its way back into the playoff picture in 2011, writes MLB.com's Joe Frisaro.

A source told Jeff Passan of Yahoo (via Twitter) that the no-arbitration clause in Carlos Beltran's contract does transfer to his new team if he is traded.
